Defeat

Just when I was starting to feel better about the fact that I will never ever ever be able to afford to buy my own home, the rickety little 2 bedroom house next door goes on the market just to rub it in.

I saw the For Sale sign yesterday and through some clever sleuthing was able to find the listing online, and the asking price of $1,800,000. Yep. ONE POINT EIGHT MILLION. DOLLARS.

This old couple used to live there and when I first moved into the neighborhood I had all these fantasies that I’d make friends with them and when they died they’d leave it to me but as it turned out they were SO ANNOYING I couldn’t even stand them lol. Anyway they passed away and there was a big rumour they were leaving the house to Mole Hill (my neighborhood) but I GUESS NOT.

tbh the reason why it’s so expensive has more to do with the land than the house- it’s right downtown and it’s listed as a “development opportunity.” And there’s a tiny vacant lot down the hill that’s 1.5 million.
